Over an acre of trees and boulders will surround you. Kids love exploring here! Red Feather has 4 public fishing lakes, hiking trails and beautiful starry nights. Cabin is accessible year round and easy to access off Co Rd 74e.

We could all use a change of scenery and our remote cabin is a great alternative for a staycation. With fast wi-fi, an area to set up a home office and plenty to keep kids occupied, we've got you covered for a home away from home during this global pandemic. Additionally, we are following strict cleaning protocol during the COVID-19 pandemic, including 24 hours between guests with thorough ventilation, cleaning and disinfecting all high-touch areas, double covering, including antimicrobial covers on all pillows, procedures for checking out movies and games so we're sure to clean everything that was touched by a prior guest.

You can easily cook or bake to your hearts desire with the fully stocked kitchen, including dishwasher, toaster, coffee maker, waffle maker, crockpot, pots, pans and plenty of plates, glassware and other kitchen basics. Two different rooms with TVs, including DVD players. Several classic movies on DVD available to borrow. Fun family time with board games or cards.

Red Feather Lakes is a beautiful and secluded mountain town. Check out the feature story from 9news.com to see more details, just search for "Red Feather Lakes". They claim that it's a great town to do nothing, but we'd argue that it's a fantastic place to rejuvenate, spend time in nature, reconnect with your loved ones and enjoy the cool mountain air.

Red Feather Lakes is accessible by paved roads, although the last 1/4 miles from the main road to the cabin is a dirt road. This dirt road is maintained year-round. The driveway is long and a bit steep. 4WD is recommended during the winter, but all cars are able to climb the driveway the rest of the seasons.

Relaxed atmosphere with Fall Colors

We three seniors plus our pug had a delightful time in this cabin. The kitchen was well appointed, which is important because we cook due to dietary limitations. The rooms were clean, neat, and comfortably decorated, and the views were fine. We spent 3 days exploring the Poudre Canyon, the nearby stupa, and just the decks--nothing better than sunshine and wine on a deck facing mountains. But we were also lucky to have a moose amble by the cabin one morning and a young buck the last day. We remembered to bring the hummingbird feeder inside because their flights had already taken place. Thanks for a great stay!

Mountain Get Away

We love this property and the area. It's a short drive from several communities in Northern Colorado and just a beautiful cabin. Well stocked, clean, and great location in the area. We've stayed more than once and hope to continue our visits. Of course, the dogs love it, too!

Better than Advertised !

Four adults and three children spent five nights at this great cabin. We ate most of our meals at the picnic table on the front deck due to the perfect weather and lack of bugs. The location and setting were perfect, and the cabin is spacious and tastefully decorated. This was our third stay in Red Feather Lakes and by far the best experience.

Lovely stay in Red Feather

We had a great time at the property. It was clean and comfortable with all of the amenities we expected. The owners were responsive and friendly, as were the couple that cleaned the house before and after us. We cooked, played games, and enjoyed the natural beauty of the area.

Beautiful cabin with private master suite. Quiet location. The home was spotless and filled with all the amenities a family would need. They went above and beyond to make sure your stay was comfortable. Just bring your own food and clothes and you will want for nothing.

Anniversary Getaway

The cabin is a lovely retreat from the world! We made food for the hummingbirds and put out bird seeds for the other mountain visitors. They were a delight. The setup is very functional & our stay was a pleasure once we mastered the fire pit -- Thanx, Joel! Everything we needed was there for sure! With all the fees, it's a bit pricey but you only have one 41st anniversary.

Great place

The house fit our needs for number of bedrooms and bathrooms. The master bedroom tv wouldn’t show any other input other than AV1. HDMI was not available. Brand new Amazon firestick wouldn’t work on tv in the den, but an older Roku worked. Sound bar didn’t work either. The outside yard was fun with all the rocks. Enjoyed seeing all the hummingbirds and chipmunks.

About the host

Host profile image
Joel and Janelle are Colorado Natives and love spending time in the fresh mountain air. We live in Denver with our boy/girl twins, who love coming to Red Feather for boulder climbing and fort building.

Why they chose this property

Janelle is the 3rd generation of her family to have a cabin in Red Feather Lakes. She's been coming to Red Feather since she was a toddler and this place holds a special place in her heart. Joel started joining Janelle's family for weekends in the mountains when they were both in high school. Joel also fell in love with Red Feather and is excited that we now have our own family cabin.

This is the perfect destination for families with children and we're also dog friendly (fees apply). Feel at home with a huge, king bedded master suite with private deck that is perfect for coffee with a view or stargazing. Two additional bedrooms, featuring a queen bed in one, and a full-bed with twin trundle in the other. You can easily cook or bake to your hearts desire with the fully stocked kitchen, including dishwasher, toaster, coffee maker, waffle maker, crockpot, pots, pans and plenty of plates, glassware and other kitchen basics.
